Tuesday's Bargain or Bust?

For at least a week now my Mom has been talking up a shopping spot she just had to hit up this Tuesday. She was beyond excited that Pawn America sells DVD's two for $5.00 on Tuesdays. She had been seeing the commercials for weeks and could think of endless gifts she could create out of this amazing deal. She found a local friend (I think for safety) and made the big trip. This is our conversation today following her return from Pawn America...

Mom: "Well that was kind of a bust"

Me: "You didn't find any DVD's?"

Mom: "Not really", sounding pretty bummed out about it.

Me: "Sorry to hear that I know you were pretty excited about this trip"

Mom: "Ya, well I did get two DVD's, did you ever see the one with Tom Hanks stuck in the airport?"

Me: "Yes"

When I answered yes she became even more upset even making me relay to her what the plot was to prove I had actually seen it.


Mom: With her last dose of disgust and disappointment she finally shares what was the worst part about shopping for the DVD's as she explained "I was mad because the DVD's were used"

Me: "Well you were at a PAWN shop"
